It all started when I wanted to improve the appearance of my email communications. Being a marketing
consultant, I felt the look and feel of my email messages should reflect my company's capabilities.
Unfortunately, I am still using Microsoft Office 2000 and this version of Outlook 2000 does not provide very
sophisticated email stationery. So I started searching for tools and templates. After downloading a ton of
worthless, old shareware products, I found High Impact eMail 5
. All I can is "WOW!" What a cool tool this is. Check it out. It does everything from
provide professionally designed, customizable email templates for most major email packages to managing
your email lists, handling your subscriptions, designing your subscriber boxes, to actually blasting your
email campaign!
Once you get High Impact eMail 5 installed, you find yourself staring at a substantial list of
categories and email templates. They are not cheesy desktop publishing templates you get with most low-end
packages. These are professionally designed and laid out. They use high quality royalty-free images but you
can substitute your own images with just a click.
There is a full editor with High Impact eMail 5. You can edit any part of the template you wish, giving it a
distinct look all your own. Change the pictures, the fonts, the colors, the elements, and add whatever you
like.
Changing a picture element is as simple as clicking on it, and browsing to your own image.
Bingo! It's done. And don't worry about how all of your rich emails are going to arrive intact when your
clients receive them. You get a free FTP account called ReadyShare. Every time you publish a new template, the
images get saved to your ReadyShare account. This means that your emails travel light but will display
perfectly when they arrive. If you prefer to host images on your own web server, you can do that, too.
High Impact eMail 5 features full access to the email template's HTML code, so you
can tweak to your heart's content.
When you are all done, you can click the Send button from within High Impact eMail 5 and your email client will launch and display your new email
template. It looks fabulous and really helps make my email communications more impressive.
High Impact eMail 5 works with various versions of Outlook, Gmail, Windows Mail,
ACT! and other applications. Check their site for the full list of compatible email clients.
You can set-up multiple email profiles for yourself, your users and your company. You can add
your brick and mortar contact information, your photo, your logo and even your signature.
High Impact eMail 5 also has the facility to manage your email lists, either by
importing them or through subscriptions and subscriber boxes. I was able to import a CSV version of an old
email list in seconds, matched up the field names, and I was done in a flash!
High Impact eMail 5 also enables you to create custom subscription boxes for your
web site, and it will actually manage your subscriptions for you by polling the High Impact eMail 5 email server.
All in all, I was immensely impressed by the quality of High Impact eMail Basic templates and their features and functions. I've never seen
an email application this powerful or easy to use. My email's look very professional now and I am quite
pleased with the company's support.
High Impact eMail 5 comes in two varieties, professional and platinum. Platinum
comes with 600+ templates, 5 MB of ReadyShare space and a subscribe/unsubscribe feature (if you are using
Outlook or Gmail to send your messages this is a perfect way to make your emails CANSPAM compliant).
Professional comes with 300+ templates, 2 MB of ReadyShare space and does NOT have the subscribe/unsubscribe
feature.
Also, both products come with a free gift, 3-months of access to the TemplateZone Store ($25 Value) absolutely
free. I recommend you hop over to their site and give it a try. You are going to be very pleased with what you
find! Click here for more information.
